Maija Vosloboinikova , BACP

Maija Vosloboinikova is a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) with over four years of experience supporting adults through a broad range of emotional and psychological challenges. She works with people experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, work-related stress, life transitions, and relationship difficulties, tailoring each session to the individual’s needs and goals.

Her style is warm, respectful, and compassionate, creating a space where people can feel heard and supported while they explore change. Maija uses an integrative approach that blends person-centered methods with cognitive behavioural techniques - combining empathy and listening with structured tools to help address thoughts, behaviours, and emotions. She works collaboratively with clients, moving at a pace that feels manageable and focusing on what matters most to each person.

Maija supports adults of all ages, including professionals, students, and those navigating questions about identity or relationships, and she affirms and welcomes clients from the LGBTQIA+ community. She also has a special interest in psychosexual therapy, offering a non-judgemental environment to explore intimacy, sexual wellbeing, desire, identity, and performance concerns. Whether dealing with day-to-day overwhelm or longer-standing issues, Maija aims to help people reflect, build confidence, and feel more hopeful about the future.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Maija draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and attachment-based ideas to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective, providing empathetic listening and support to help people explore values, choices, and personal growth. CBT offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and can help with intimacy, relationship difficulties, and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Maija works collaboratively with clients to decide what fits best. She listens to each person’s goals, preferences, and pace, and adapts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and achievable.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing sessions by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives or for those in different locations. These options help people access consistent support, maintain momentum between sessions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
